The Nanotechnology minor CHEG 3713 Chemical Engineering Materials Technology draws faculty expertise and coursework from the College of Engineering CHEG 5043 Colloid and Interface Science and the Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences and utilizes state-of-the-art equipment and facilities at the Institute for Nanoscience and Engineering. CHEM 4123 Advanced Inorganic Chemistry I The Nanotechnology minor is intended to prepare participating students CHEM 4213 Instrumental Analysis for a career in which nanotechnology is playing an increasingly important CHEM 4283 Energy Conversion and Storage role, and increase students' research competitiveness for graduate CHEM 4443 Physical Chemistry of Materials studies. The Nanotechnology minor is designed to be accessible to CHEM 5443 Physical Chemistry of Materials students majoring in engineering, physics, or chemistry and biochemistry. ELEG 4203 Semiconductor Devices It is open to all students who have the necessary prerequisites to enroll in the courses that constitute the minor. ELEG 4303 Introduction to Nanomaterials and Devices MEEG 4303 Materials Laboratory Requirements for the Nanotechnology Minor MEEG 4313 Introduction to Tribology Students wishing to participate in the Nanotechnology minor must declare MEEG 5263 Introduction to Micro Electro Mechanical Systems participation formally. The students are required to meet with the faculty MEEG 5343 Computational Material Science coordinator of an individual department who will help the student to PHYS 3213 Electronics in Experimental Physics develop a list of courses suitable for the minor and a schedule for taking those courses. Examples of model programs for each participating PHYS 3613 Modern Physics department are given below. PHYS 4073 Introduction to Quantum Mechanics PHYS 4213 Physics of Devices Students need to take a total of 15 credit hours, which includes 6 credit PHYS 4713 Solid State Physics hours of required courses and 9 credit hours of elective courses and must earn a grade of "C" or better for all courses used to fulfill the requirements PHYS 4773 Introduction to Optical Properties of Materials of the Nanotechnology minor. or from other appropriate courses not on this list if approved first by the Nanotechnology Minor Curriculum Committee and by the Required Research Courses course instructor. Nanotechnology Research (Independent Study or Honors Thesis in 6 Total Hours 15 nanotechnology) Students can choose from the following courses: Below are model programs for students from different participating BENG 450V Special Problems departments. Students also have the flexibility to design their own programs according to the stated requirements above.
